Is the current rearguard format expected to live "forever"?

Or, at some point in the future will we have a new vanguard format, and
all the other formats shift one position, with the current "vanguard"
format becoming "mainstream", the current "normal" becoming a new 
"mainstream" and the current "rearguard" being dropped off of the back 
end of the truck?
